Reisroute
Begin de tour op het centrale plein, waar de beroemde voetbalwedstrijd gespeeld in middeleeuwse kostuums, de Calcio Storico Florentino, hier elk jaar in juni plaatsvindt. Je gids zal in detail alle immense artistieke rijkdom in Santa Croce beschrijven; fresco's (1380) van Gaddi in de Cappella Maggiore vertellen het verhaal van "Santa Croce", en prachtige fresco's van Giotto in de kapellen van Bardi en Peruzzi tonen scènes uit het leven van St. Franciscus en St. Johannes de Evangelist. Op je weg naar links van de ingang zie je het monument van de 19e-eeuwse toneelschrijver Giovanni Battista Niccolini, gebouwd als inspiratie voor het Vrijheidsbeeld. Terwijl je door de heilige muren loopt, leer je over de kunst van Donatello en zijn kruisbeeld, een van de juwelen van de Renaissance, evenals de kunst van Brunelleschi en de perfecte architecturale harmonie van zijn Chapel of Fools.
Bekijk de monumentale begraafplaats en beschadigde schilderijen die tijdens de tragische overstroming van 1966 werden verwoest en vervolgens zijn hersteld. Na een bezoek aan het interieur, leer je meer over de buitenkant, die is bedekt met een polychrome marmeren façade. Ten slotte zal de gids je rondleiden rond de klokkentoren, de crypte en de 16 kapellen. De tour duurt ongeveer een uur en je hebt de mogelijkheid om terug te keren naar alles wat je misschien nog een keer wilt zien nadat de tour is afgelopen.

Walking Among the Masters at Santa Croce was a memorable experience of our time in Florence. From the moment we stepped into the basilica, it felt like walking through Italian history. Seeing the tombs of Michelangelo, Galileo, Machiavelli, and Rossini in one place was incredible, and our guide added to the context. We learned about the impact of the 1966 Florence flood and the restoration efforts. We also enjoyed seeing Donatello’s crucifix. So much to see and our photos don’t give it justice.

Claudia, my guide, replaced her colleague (sick) at the foot. Very friendly, she explained to me with passion all the history this sublime Basilica. So sharp about dates and anecdotes in perfect French, I had the impression that she had lived during the time of buried protagonists. By far the most beautiful visit I've made.
